| 20100178021 | SPLICE CLOSURE AND FIBRE ORGANISER DEVICE - A splice closure and fibre organiser device ( | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100209050 | POSITIONING OF ADAPTORS FOR OPTICAL CONNECTORS - An assembly of a mounting support and an optical fibre connector adaptor (20) mounted on the support, wherein the adaptor has a connector-receiving axis and at least one lateral (to the said axis) mounting projection (25) on at least a first one of its sides, and the mounting support comprises wall members (not necessarily flat or continuous) upstanding from the support on both sides of the said adaptor, which wall members on at least one side of the adaptor define mounting slots adapted to receive the said mounting projections of the adaptor, and wherein the slots are formed to permit movement of the adaptor between at least a first position in which the adaptor is supported with its said axis at an acute angle to the support, and a working position in which the adaptor is supported with its said axis lying substantially parallel to the support, and wherein the wall members define, in at least one of the said slots, at least one shoulder (30) on which one of the mounting projections (25) of the adaptor can be supported, and at least one resilient portion (35) of the wall member is arranged to retain that mounting projection removably on the said shoulder. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20100232752 | Splice protection device for optical splices - The invention relates to a splice protection device for spliced optical fibers and to a method particularly for providing an access point to an optical fiber cable in a dwelling unit of a multi dwelling unit. To facilitate mounting of a splice protection device, the splice protection device according to the invention comprises a first and a second tube, the second tube being arranged concentrically and slidable within the first tube, the first and second tubes being adapted to receive at least one spliced fiber. The present invention furthermore relates to a method for providing an access point to a provider optical cable in a dwelling unit of a multi-dwelling unit. The inventive method avoids splicing work within the dwelling unit and is characterized by the steps of branching-off at least one branching optical fiber of the provider cable at a branch point adjacent to said dwelling unit, passing a preassembled connector cable being provided with a connector through duct work for cable to the branch point and splicing the branching optical fiber with an optical fiber of the connector cable. | 09-16-2010 |

| 20110103750 | OPTICAL FEBRE COUPLING DEVICE AND METHOD - An optical fibre coupling device and a method are disclosed. The optical fibre coupling device includes a first patch strip having a first plurality of optical fibre connectors arranged along a face of the first patch strip and a second patch strip having a second plurality of optical fibre connectors arranged along a face of the second patch strip. The first and second patch strips are in a stacked arrangement where the second plurality of optical fibre connectors is offset from the first plurality of optical fibre connectors in a first and a second direction transverse to a stacking direction. The offsetting improves access to the individual optical fibre connectors which assists an operative when managing or maintaining optical fibre connections and helps to reduce the likelihood of fatigue or failure since adjacent optical fibre connections are undisturbed during this process and the optical fibre connections may be easily accessed without needing to move or manipulate adjacent patch strips. | 05-05-2011 |
